Every morning I wake up to new subscriber notifications. Here's the simple system behind it, and your last chance to join the July Challenge before it starts tomorrow.
I really enjoyed this, Wes. One thing that stood out to me was the emphasis on consistency over complexity. Over the past few weeks, I’ve found the same—showing up every day with honest reflections has mattered far more than chasing every new tactic. Thanks for sharing such a practical framework.
What I notice is that you have a specific topic. You are “selling” something. Most of the “how to” type newsletters have far more subscribers than people who write about other things - like a cancer journey, life, family, etc. Being consistent with notes and writing regularly doesn’t work the same if I’m not selling anything. Just my writing. I thought of adding some merch with quotes from my writing and some of my sketches/watercolour like mugs, or journals, but I’d have to sell a lot of them or give away large numbers to attract subscribers. Someone suggested I put the mystery novel I’m writing out one chapter at a time. That might bring in paid subscribers. I don’t know but writing consistent notes is not the ticket if you have nothing to “sell.”
Hi Wes! If we have already purchased all your materials, will we be getting the July Challenge in our email box starting the 15th? (PS Can you please reply to my DM requesting the link to the digital workshop I purchased? THX!)
How did you put that big image "Escapethe cubicle" please?
Hi, do you mean your logo? or the image inside my post?
The logo on your newsletter homepage.
Mine got so small I took it off, and other people I know also have the same problem.
Thank you!
